As a leader, it’s not your job to inspire people…
It’s your job to be an inspiration.
- Always keep your word, or don’t give it.
- Be true to yourself.
- Be the mindset and behaviour you want and need to see from others.
There will always be at least one person who chooses not to be inspired. If you try to inspire everyone, you will spend a disproportionate amount of time with that one person, at the expense of time spent with everyone else.
And that person will love it!
One of the first things I ever learned as a leader at Allianz – never let the few who do not want to travel on our agreed journey, to bring down the many who do.
So let out your own naked leader from within.
With my love and best wishes to you all.

Yes, ignore the detractors. They only want to bring you down out of jealousy.
Lead from the front, that normally works. Show people exactly what you are so that they can be inspired from what you do
